I think 2gate is the safer way to play unless positions are really close and/or you scout some indication of aggression from the zerg and your natural doesn't have a ramp (e.g. Shattered, Metal). 3gate sacrifices some probe production and gets upgrades going later. If you 3gate and don't use them all (you use them all only if you confirm that the zerg is attacking you), you can keep probe production but upgrades will still be late. Nice games today (yesterday I guess, only just watched the rebroadcast). Only thing is that whenever you are close to max and move out vs Zerg at around 16-18 minute mark, you seem to often lose your army (or some of it then you transition into carriers ftw) as a result of quick broodlords/infestors? I've noticed this on your stream and in your games vs Darkforce today. I'm not really in a position to be making strategy advice to a pro but maybe a stargate around the time you move out could work. And also how on earth do you get so many units when you stay on 2 gates for so long - your play is so like.. eye opening to watch - looking forward to your future games ) | ||

I know that you were once asked on your stream if you would ever show a practice session of you playing in single player, but I don't remember exactly what you answered, so I was wondering if that ever is something you would do in the future? I know that it may seem like a stupid question since it wouldn't be that viewer friendly unless you talked while doing it, which I highly doubt you would want to, and even if you did it, it would still only be for the more hardcore Starcraft fans + your fans.... Anyways! Good luck! /cheer cheer | ||

Thanks for the answer If i may ask, why not 1gate expand when you see the zerg is taking no gas (or late gas)? | ||

Really love how you've shown that you can 2 gate expand over FFE and make it work versus Zerg! | ||

I just caught your games from the NASL this week, and I was so inspired, I felt compelled to write to you. Those games were SO good. The first game was, in fact, magnificent. I think I finally understand what you see in your 1 gate expand build. Force a few units with your early zealots, then attack at his 3rd to ensure he didn't take it too early. Best case scenario, you get a cancel on the 3rd base. Worst case your attack is pushed back, but his 3rd would have to be late. Either way, you fall back and safely take your 3rd. Such a cool style. It's so great to see your persistence and dedication to this idea paying off. You have been streaming a lot more recently, so I know you have been practicing a lot -- I think this is the turning point we have been waiting for. I can't wait to see you next week | ||
